all  fleshfolk  share  this  kind of sea 
 within  them  that  soothes the  ache of 
             the rocky shores             
                                          
         does it erode the stone?         
       this water can be poisoned.        
                                          
                                      
                                          
 a priority  is  the flow  of  the blood, 
 and the  oxygen level in  it.  it's also 
 nice to maintain a  low viscosity level, 
          perhaps by hydration.           
                                          
                                      
                                          
 red  as  night and  warm  to  the  touch
